Touch id won't activate on iPhone 6

The touch id won't work after screen repacement. Original home button was used during reassembly. I did tear the home button ribbon on the backing plate.

I replaced the plate, home button works great however I get an error stating Touch ID won't activate.

Is this software issue? I have read several posts about this issue however, I have not been able to fix.

Answered! View the answer I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Have you tried the resetting network settings?

Hard to tell whether it's software issue or not.
